Republicans, creating, a crisis, not doing their job!
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
“In a day that was chock full of political stories in which #Republicans were launching attacks on #Democrats, Senator Brian #Schatz (D-HI) made a key point. “We have not passed an #EmergencySupplemental, a #FarmBill, or regular #Appropriations,” he said“

The extraordinary gerrymandering in Republican-dominated states following Operation REDMAP in 2010 created such safe districts that Republicans did not need to worry about losing elections. That safety meant that their role was not to offer real legislative solutions to problems, but rather to gin up support for the party nationally by pushing party talking points on right-wing media. Those talking points focused on slashing the government, which they claimed was hurting their constituents by defending secular society and providing benefits to undeserving minorities and women.
